Looooooooool dogs mostly don't get diabetes in the wild cause they die as a young adult, or they die when they get it.

Also adding type 1 diabetes (the type dogs get) is an autoimmune diseases unrelated to nutrition (differing from cats who get type 2 mostly). In fact, the best way to regulate a dog's diabetes is to feed them a high fiber diet. A high protein diet leads to glucose spikes and crashes, which have a higher chance of leading to deadly hypoglycemia or diabetic ketoacidosis.

I said high protein DIETS. No one should be feeding their dog straight meat. They need glucose for their brain just like all mammals do.
